You forgot there is a strike in Europe. and this is not including the Bundle i bet you. this 450k is just solo copy, just look at the PS3 hardware sales you will know what i mean. Usually it sells like 80k, so that means rest of it is probalby Bundle. so it did sell 1 million on day one.

Ops, sorry i read the numbers wrong. My bad, maybe it didn't sell that much so its 800k then i guess. Sorry about that. But there was a strike though on the carrier freight. That part is accuracy. peace out.

@1. Good for MGS, but why would you need to bring up the lack of 360 sales? I fail to see the need to do that...

@1.4 Why? isn't it called CHOICE? I mean, I shudder to see how many Toyota Camrys get sold every month, but since there is nothing I can do about it (other than not buying one), I don't even think about it...

jeez... edit: some people have worked out from chartrack published data (in famitsu march edition) about how well prolouge did in the uk opening week and the fact that chartrack say Mgs did 2000 better so theoratically speaking Mgs 'allegedly' did between 108,000 to 112,000. I personally don't think uk market is the biggest market in europe, nor 1/4 of it...so the figure in my opinion should be higher.

This is so inaccurate! How can you have weekly totals on Mgs4 when it came out on the 12th and at max you have 2 days of sales data? How? It's stupid!

Sales for a game split week released should not be calculated until the following week. It's like When Iron man came out over the long weekend. It came out Wed and they counted it's entire 5 day run to monday as its weekend. It's absurd! You can't do that.

Mgs4 should've been totaled up next week. From the 12th to the 19th. Simple as that.

Only a blind fanboy would say that 400k is a low sales debut with only 2 days of possible data acquired. No one ever expected MGS4 to outsell or come close to GTAIV. That being said, the game far surpasses GTAIV in every other way.

What im pissed about is why europe gets civilization revolution before North America....dont worry nasim/mavrick...when mgs4 falls off those charts in the next couple of weeks You will be reading YOUR console of choice is am fail and you will be in damage control mode like all of 2007 again.

I think it would have been more it the game was actually release worldwide on June 12. Some country such as Spain have to wait until the 17th to get MGS4 because of a Strike or something by the drivers of delivery trucks. If it wasn't for that problem, it would have sold a lot more.

hahahah this is only a day or two. And no halo didn't sale over 800,000 in the first 2 days of Europe... stop LIEING. Maybe in the first week. MGS4 is selling almost just as good as Halo so far and SELLING MORE CONSOLES. Get over it. You console fails so hard.

cmon most of you people knew this..but its all about damage control when your biggest selling game comes to your console and it fails to break records. and here is vgcharts for the 2th of sept. http://vgchartz.com/eweekly... start disagreeing with proof in front of your faces kids. also throw out that argument of "smaller install" base as well..if gta4 can sell a million copies in one week.

@butterfinger the jump in consoles were quite minimal...last week it was 92K..this week it was 112K last week before that it was 96K as well.

I thought it was more important for MGS4 to move consoles. I'm pretty sure nobody expected it to outsell GTAIV in terms of software, but it's doing a good job of moving hardware so far. It's actually doing a MUCH better job than GTAIV did.

mmm... Metal Gear is not selling as much as I thought... Halo 3 sold almost 2 times that much and the PS3 have a larger installbase than the xbox 360 had when Halo 3 came out... The game is also not doing as good as GTA4.

Metal Gear Solid 4 definantly had a good opening in Europe for the first 2 days and the PS3 is slowly overtaking the 360 in Europe with each passing week, and according to that list, GTA4 has sold more units on the PS3 than the Xbox 360 in Europe, pretty impressive. And I had expected Ninja Gaiden 2 to be higher up on the European charts than it was. MGS4 definantly gave the PS3 a boost worldwide, that's for sure.... MGS4 is one of the many games that potential PS3 owners have been waiting for, so it's no surprise to see MGS4 at the top of the charts in Europe.
